Well, overall, I’d say a very good night. Even Kerry didn’t suck. Of course I was disappointed not to see Richardson (who I still hope to soon call “Secretary of State”), but it looks like they moved him to tomorrow, so it’s all good.

They really hammered home the military thing tonight. I suppose that’s good and necessary. Even though it does creep out us conscientious objectors, I do realize we’re a freakish minority.

Biden? Home fucking run, I think. I still wouldn’t pick him first for president, but his tenacity and spirit speak to why he really is a pretty good choice for number two. And, well, this is going to get all hokey, but you wanna know why I really feel okay about Joe Biden for veep? Jill Biden’s eyes. I saw in her eyes a pride — not a superficial powerlust like that which I saw in Laura Bush’s eyes eight years ago — but the genuine pride one must feel when seeing a loved one succeeding at doing the good they’ve always hoped to do. I saw a woman who would not marry anyone but a good man, and must assume by extension that Joe is exactly what he seems.

Heh. I just noticed the title of that previously linked story —

“Richardson won’t get shot at the convention podium til Thursday”

Damn. So the AP thinks Richardson will get shot Thursday?
